Stringent Enforcement Ofthe Law and

Connecticut licenses for the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors expire October 81 and tae
dealers are walking circumspectly," as the
commissioners it is whispered will refuse to
grant new licenses for very small provocation,
owing to the pressure brought to bear upon
them by the temperance advocates. In near
" all of the counties the fees for licenses will
be raised to nearly double those required last
year, making the average fee for saloon
licenses throughout the State about $500.
Recently bondsman for d Middlesex county
man paid the commissioners $500 because his
principal had been convicted of violation, and
the impression prevailed that many hundreds
of dollars are due the State from bondsmen
who are fally as liable The strict enforce
ment of the law and the increase in the price
of licenses will have the effect of diminishing
the places where Intoxicating liquors are sold
fully twenty-five per cent. throughout the
State, and those who do receive licenses will
carry on their business in compliance with
the requirements of the law. Probably there
is less liquor sold in the saloons Sunday
in Connecticut now than in many years, an
unknown man finding it very difficult mat
ter to secure drink from saloon keeper.
The reputation of selling is sufficient to secure
a conviction, and therefore saloon keepers
need to be very cautious if they desire to
continue in the business in this State

A Timely suggestion.

TO the Edltor OF tne JOURNAL AND COURIER:
Now that Temple street in the Green is
newly paved, would it not be we'll for our city
fathers to pass an ordinance forbidding coal
carts, brick-wagons and all vehicles without
springs from passing through it. It is to be
regretted that the Green cannot be kept sole
ly for public park, but as the presence
OF the churches renders thoroughfare
through it necessity, this might at least be
kept as far as possible free from dirt and
dust and from unnecessary wear and tear.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
The entrance 90 the Farnam drive on the
west side, just after crossing the Orange
street bridge, is a dangerous spot, especially
to snyone coming down the English drive
with team. There is no rail, fence or any
protection whatever, and even in daylight it
might not be easy to turn a horse coming
down under strong Roadway on to the bridge.
At night little mistake as to the distance or
the road would be likely to result in seri-
GUS accident. OBSERVER,

Arrest of the Proprietor of n Milford
shore Hotel For Forgery.

Charles D. Merwin, proprietor of well
known shore resort at Milford, has been ar.
rested for forgery. He is charged with de
frauding the Connecticut National bank out
of $500 by means of a forged note for that
amount. Merwin gave the note last June on
the American bank of Hartford and it is
claimed forged to it the signature of the
johnson & Robbins Seed company, with
whom he had dealings. 1t was discounted
at the Connecticut bank at Bridgeport and
not being paid on October 8, when it became
due, the fact of the forgery was revealed.
Merwin tried hard to raise the money to take
up the note before it fell due, but failed.

ATTENTION is called to the advertise
ment of the Sheboygan Business College
which appears elsewhere. There is no
business college which offers stronger
inducements to the young person seeking
business education. Indeed it may be
questioned whether any other offers
equally good advantages.
Those in charge are practical men,
Mr.. Patten has been employed as an ex-
pert by this state and some of the largest
concerns of Chicago and New York. He
has had % years experience as an ac-
cOuntant and is an authority on matters
pertaining to his profession. Mr.. Morrill,
is graduate of the Boston Law School,
member of the Maine bar, and was an
instructor in commercial law in the
Business College of Bryant & Stratton
OF Chicago, from whence he comes direct
ly to Sheboygan.
Sheboygan is by no means as expen-
slve place as others in which are loca-
ted business colleges and there are none
of the temptations of the large cities to
distract the attention OF students from
their work.
The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1887-10-27

FRANK LUCAS completed his time in the
county jail on Monday morning and was
discharged. He was working a scheme
to secure his liberty before his time was
up. He had secured a bit and with it
had bored holes through one of the four
inch planks which form the ceiling of his
cell. He had the plank almost complete
ly cut through and would then have to
make his way through the floor compare
lively easy job. He came in possession of
the bit through Wood the fellow who was
put In jail some weeks ago for stealing a
gun. Wood after his release procured fine
bit and several keys and threw them over
the jail fence so near the grated window
that Lucas got possession of them by
means OF broom-stick with a button
hook attached. Young Willert, who is
In jail, says Lucas could easily unlock
any of the cell doors.
He left number of letters in his cell.
Some were addressed to The Pilot and
rather of an uncomplimentary character
A couple started out to address Mayor
Iorrlson but did not proceed much farth-
er than the address.
All in all, Lucas was a pretty hard
prisoner to hold and fellow who ought
to be something better than criminal.
